Lucy McGurn is a Senior Marketing and Sales student from Madison, New Jersey. She shares why she chose Catholic University and the Busch School and her advice for prospective students.

Why did you choose to attend Catholic University and the Busch School?

"I chose to attend Catholic U because I liked D.C. and felt it would be the place I would excel the most in. I chose the Busch School because I think business people should always have ethics at the forefront of their minds (which isn't always the case) and the Busch School does a great job at intertwining business practices and the CST."

Why do you want to be part of the business world?

"I want to be a part of the business world because I want to be able to help people work towards the common good."

What's been your favorite part of being a student at Catholic University?

"My favorite part about being a student at CUA is being able to learn in a small environment. Small, as in the professors are actually able to be personable with you since the classroom sizes are smaller than other schools."

What advice would you give to prospective students?

"Go to this school. You're getting taught by Ivy League level professors who want to get to know you and WILL get to know you."
